1866 Three Dollar Gold Piece PCGS MS64

Sirhc

Rare, Flashy Near-Gem

Struck shortly after the close of the Civil War, the 1866 three dollar gold piece was not saved in any meaningful quantity by collectors, and thus its low 4,000-coin mintage had more of an effect on high-grade availability than can be said of the mintages of later issues in the series. Mint State survivors are scarce across the board, but are notably rare above the MS62 level. The example offered here is highly lustrous and flashy, with a lovely overall appearance. The PCGS population is only 7 with 5 higher and if you were even able to locate an MS65 example, it would likely be more than double the price of this coin.  Listed at $16,300 in the CDN CPG, $13,000 in the PCGS price guide and $17,500 in Trends.

1915-S Pan Pac $50 Round NGC MS66

Sirhc

The Panama-Pacific Exposition was authorized to sell up to 1,500 examples each of both the Round and Octagonal versions of the Pan-Pac fifties, and the Mint struck 1510 examples of the Round version, including 10 examples for the Assay Commission. Unfortunately, the high cost of the coins ($100 per coin) discouraged all but the most dedicated collectors, and only 483 specimens of the Round design were sold. The remaining 1,017 coins were melted after the close of the exposition. These rare gold commemoratives are avidly sought-after in today’s market.  NGC population of only 19 with 5 higher. If you’ve never held one of these massive and extremely impressive coins in your hand, you owe it to yourself to do so. Listed at $260,200 in the CDN CPG and $260,000 in the NGC price guide.

1854 Kellogg & Co. $20 NGC AU58

Sirhc

The California economy suffered from an acute shortage of coinage after the United States Assay Office closed in late 1853, until the San Francisco Mint began coinage operations on a large scale in 1854. Even after the Mint was officially established, shortages sometimes limited production, putting extreme pressure on the small supply of coinage available to meet the needs of the burgeoning economy. To fill the gap, John G. Kellogg partnered first with G. F. Richter in late 1853 and 1854, then with Augustus Humbert in late 1854 and 1855 to produce twenty dollar gold pieces, filling the gap of production between the closure of the U.S. Assay Office and the start-up of the new San Francisco Mint. NGC has graded only 131 pieces for all grades combined. Listed at $24,200 in the CDN CPG and $21,200 in the NGC price guide.

Choice Key 1911-D Indian Quarter Eagle NGC MS63

Sirhc

The 1911-D is the first of only three branch mint issues in the Indian quarter eagle series and it claims a mintage of just 55,680 pieces, a remarkably small production total for any 20th century coin. Accordingly, this issue is the rarest Indian quarter eagle and the acknowledged key to the series. Most examples seen are in lower Mint State grades. The one offered here is lighter in hue and more lustrous than seen in our images. Listed at $12,900 in the CDN CPG, $14,300 in the NGC price guide and $15,000 in Trends.

Offered at $12,100 delivered

Highly Original Looking 1805 4 Berries Draped Bust Dime PCGS/CAC MS63+

Sirhc

The dimes of 1805 are known only by two die marriages that share a common obverse, with a small spine protruding from the top of the 5 in the date. The reverses show four or five berries, with the present 4 Berries reverse having narrow A’s and leaves that are clear of the peripheral lettering. No date is better suited to represent the Heraldic Eagle type than the 1805 dime. Although this example is a bit lighter and brighter in-hand, if you like dipped white examples, this one is most assuredly NOT for you. On the other hand, it looks about as original as you are likely to find and a good number of collectors prefer such coins. Listed at $15,000 in the PCGS price guide.
